World Connections 1250-1450
Between 1250-1450, improved navigation and protection led to increased travel, trade, and cultural exchanges between distant empires and kingdoms. Key exchanges included the magnetic compass from China, sugarcane from Southeast Asia, and gunpowder from China, which impacted maritime trade, agriculture, and weapon technology respectively. Notable travelers during this period were Marco Polo and Ibn Battuta, whose accounts documented widespread Islamic influence and inspired further exploration. Global trade networks expanded as the Venetian-dominated Mediterranean trade linked to Indian Ocean monsoon-based commerce. Meanwhile, Chinese expeditions under Zheng He explored the Indian Ocean region until voyages were ended under the Ming Dynasty. Seeking new trade routes,
19.1 europeans explore the east
European powers like Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands, and England explored trade routes to Asia in the 1400s and 1500s motivated by desires for wealth, resources, and spreading Christianity ("God, glory, and gold"). Portugal led the way by establishing trading posts along the west African coast and sending explorers like Bartolomeu Dias and Vasco da Gama, who found routes around Africa and to India. Spain also sought routes to Asia but Columbus landed in the Americas instead, opening that region to colonization. Conflicts between Portugal and Spain over claims in newly discovered lands led the Pope to establish boundaries with the Treaty of Tordesillas. Over time, the Portuguese trading empire gave way to competition from other European powers

19.1 - Europeans Explore The East
The Europeans begin the Age of Exploration due to commercial and religious motivations as well as the introduction of technological innovations.
3.1 europeans explore the east
Europeans had limited exploration before 1400s but interest grew due to a desire to spread Christianity, gain wealth from trade, and new sailing technologies. Motivations included God, glory, and gold where Europeans wanted to convert non-Christians, gain prestige from discoveries, and access valuable trade goods like spices that previously passed through Italian and Muslim merchants. Technological advances like the caravel ship design, astrolabe, and magnetic compass enabled long voyages and navigation needed to pursue these goals of exploration.
19.1 europeans explore the east (1st period)
The document summarizes how trade influenced European exploration beginning in the 15th century. It describes how Portugal, led by Prince Henry, began exploring down the coast of Africa, hoping to find a route to Asia and its valuable spices. Bartolomeu Dias and Vasco da Gama later rounded the Cape of Good Hope and reached India, opening lucrative trade routes. Other European powers like Spain, the Netherlands, and England soon established their own trading companies and empires in Asia, competing for control over the spice trade and colonizing many parts of Africa, India, and Southeast Asia.
Brief history of travel
Origin of travel. How people become interested about it. The development from traditional travel to modern form of travel.
Europeans Explore The East
Europeans were motivated to explore eastward routes as they had developed a taste for eastern goods like spices and silk but were reliant on Italian merchants who transported these goods at high prices. Portugal began exploring down the coast of Africa to find a sea route to avoid Italian middlemen. The Treaty of Tordesillas divided exploration and colonization rights between Spain and Portugal. The Dutch also entered exploration to trade directly for eastern goods and not rely on Italian merchants.

Suzanne Lagerweij - Influence Without Power - Why Empathy is Your Best Friend...
This is a workshop about communication and collaboration. We will experience how we can analyze the reasons for resistance to change (exercise 1) and practice how to improve our conversation style and be more in control and effective in the way we communicate (exercise 2).
This session will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
Abstract:
Let’s talk about powerful conversations! We all know how to lead a constructive conversation, right? Then why is it so difficult to have those conversations with people at work, especially those in powerful positions that show resistance to change?
Learning to control and direct conversations takes understanding and practice.
We can combine our innate empathy with our analytical skills to gain a deeper understanding of complex situations at work. Join this session to learn how to prepare for difficult conversations and how to improve our agile conversations in order to be more influential without power. We will use Dave Gray’s Empathy Mapping, Argyris’ Ladder of Inference and The Four Rs from Agile Conversations (Squirrel and Fredrick).
In the session you will experience how preparing and reflecting on your conversation can help you be more influential at work. You will learn how to communicate more effectively with the people needed to achieve positive change. You will leave with a self-revised version of a difficult conversation and a practical model to use when you get back to work.
Come learn more on how to become a real influencer!

Carrer goals.pptx and their importance in real life
Career goals serve as a roadmap for individuals, guiding them toward achieving long-term professional aspirations and personal fulfillment. Establishing clear career goals enables professionals to focus their efforts on developing specific skills, gaining relevant experience, and making strategic decisions that align with their desired career trajectory. By setting both short-term and long-term objectives, individuals can systematically track their progress, make necessary adjustments, and stay motivated. Short-term goals often include acquiring new qualifications, mastering particular competencies, or securing a specific role, while long-term goals might encompass reaching executive positions, becoming industry experts, or launching entrepreneurial ventures.
Moreover, having well-defined career goals fosters a sense of purpose and direction, enhancing job satisfaction and overall productivity. It encourages continuous learning and adaptation, as professionals remain attuned to industry trends and evolving job market demands. Career goals also facilitate better time management and resource allocation, as individuals prioritize tasks and opportunities that advance their professional growth. In addition, articulating career goals can aid in networking and mentorship, as it allows individuals to communicate their aspirations clearly to potential mentors, colleagues, and employers, thereby opening doors to valuable guidance and support. Ultimately, career goals are integral to personal and professional development, driving individuals toward sustained success and fulfillment in their chosen fields.

Why Psychological Safety Matters for Software Teams - ACE 2024 - Ben Linders.pdf
Psychological safety in teams is important; team members must feel safe and able to communicate and collaborate effectively to deliver value. It’s also necessary to build long-lasting teams since things will happen and relationships will be strained.
But, how safe is a team? How can we determine if there are any factors that make the team unsafe or have an impact on the team’s culture?
In this mini-workshop, we’ll play games for psychological safety and team culture utilizing a deck of coaching cards, The Psychological Safety Cards. We will learn how to use gamification to gain a better understanding of what’s going on in teams. Individuals share what they have learned from working in teams, what has impacted the team’s safety and culture, and what has led to positive change.
Different game formats will be played in groups in parallel. Examples are an ice-breaker to get people talking about psychological safety, a constellation where people take positions about aspects of psychological safety in their team or organization, and collaborative card games where people work together to create an environment that fosters psychological safety.
